Threading: Internal and external threads
Knurling: Diamond and straight knurl patterns
Grooving & Parting: Precision grooves and cutoffs

Materials We Turn

Aluminum alloys, stainless steels, carbon steels, titanium, Inconel, brass, bronze, engineering plastics (PEEK, Ultem, Delrin, Nylon)

Typical Turned Parts

Shafts — Motor shafts, drive shafts, precision ground
Bushings — Flanged bushings, sleeve bearings
Valve Stems — Oil & gas control valves
Pins & Dowels — Close-tolerance alignment pins
Sleeves & Spacers — Precision OD/ID components
Fittings — Hydraulic and pneumatic fittings
Nozzles — Spray nozzles, injection components

Screw Machining for High-Volume Parts

Our automatic screw machines handle production quantities efficiently, ideal for fasteners, connectors, and precision turned parts in volumes of 1,000+ pieces.

Mill-Turn Operations

Integrated milling and turning in a single setup. Our mill-turn centers combine the best of both worlds: lathe work with full milling capabilities, reducing handling and improving accuracy.

Single-Setup Advantages

Reduced Handling: No part transfers between machines
Improved Accuracy: All features machined in one setup
Faster Delivery: Reduced cycle times and setup time
Complex Geometries: Multi-axis milling on turned parts
Y-Axis Capability: Off-centerline features
Sub-Spindle: Backside operations without flipping

Capacity

Up to 18″ diameter × 60″ length
Live tooling with driven tools
C-axis positioning for angular features

Ideal Mill-Turn Applications

Shafts with flats, keyways, and cross-holes
Valve bodies requiring turned bores and milled ports
Actuator components with complex features
Manifolds combining turned and milled surfaces
Multi-feature parts reducing setup operations

Cost & Time Savings

By combining operations, mill-turn machining can reduce total cycle time by 40-60% compared to sequential lathe and mill operations. This translates to faster delivery and lower per-part costs.
